Bryans establishing own foundation
Agassi coming to kickoff event
From his style of play to his style of clothes, Andre Agassi served as an inspiration on the tennis court to Bob and Mike Bryan.
But Agassi reached the Camarillo twins off the court as well with his charitable example.
It inspired the Bryans to establish their own foundation this year — the Bryan Brothers Foundation — and they announced their first major event will be held in Ventura County.
The Bryan Brother's All-Star Tennis Smash is scheduled for Sept. 27 at the Sherwood Country Club in Thousand Oaks.
The now-retired Agassi will be the headline guest along with current professionals James Blake, Lindsay Davenport, Mardy Fish and Thousand Oaks' Sam Querrey.
"We want to give back and try and make a difference," Bob Bryan said. "We are at a stage in our career where tennis is not everything anymore and we are in a position where we can grab a lot of these players to help us help others."
The event includes a morning Pro-Am tournament, an afternoon Pro exhibition and an evening cocktail party and Gala dinner.
Proceeds benefit local and national charities, including City Impact — a non-profit organization dedicated to helping at-risk kids in Ventura County.
Agassi's legacy to American tennis extends beyond his 60 ATP titles and eight Grand Slams. The Andre Agassi Charitable Foundation has raised more than $60 million for children and served as model for players to follow since its establishment in 1994.
Among its many success stories is The Andre Agassi College Preparatory Academy for inner-city youth in Las Vegas.
"A lot of the American guys have seen what Agassi has done, and want to make a similar impact," Mike Bryan said. "We all go to each other's charity events to raise as much money as possible for different causes."
It made sense the first invitation the Bryans extended to their foundation's inaugural fundraiser was to Agassi.
"Bob and Mike are not only a great team on the court, but off it as well," Agassi said. "I've watched them grow as players throughout their careers, and now they are taking a great first step off the court with the launch of their foundation and with this great event, which I'm really looking forward to being a part of."
Tickets and other packages for the All-Star Tennis Smash are available at 877-983-3636. General admission starts at $50. Individual tickets and tables to the gala dinner begin at $325 and $3,250, respectively.

Michigan Crews Respond to House Fire
On Monday, Feb. 23 around 8:30 a.m., the Eastpointe Fire/Rescue in Macomb County, Mich. received a call of a house fire at 16234 Ten Mile Road.
Command found heavy smoke and fire conditions. Crews made an aggressive attack on the fire and a quick knock was made.
Neighbors reported that the occupant was not home, and a primary search proved the same. Off duty call backs were made, bringing additional manpower to the scene to aid in overhaul and clean up.
Crews worked for over an hour to control the fire.

text: Julian Gilbey's fact-based crime saga Rise of the Footsoldier traces one man's meteoric ascension from a lucrative soccer career, through the ranks of organized crime, to the status of Britain's most omnipotent drug lord. The tale begins in the 1970s, when hooligan Carlton Leach (Ricci Harnett) finds himself implicated in a series of violent skirmishes on the soccer fields of England. Prompted to leave this activity and enter another trade, Leach self-incorporates as a company called ICF - a front for the young entrepreneur's drug-dealing activities. Soon, Carlton's business flourishes - first with cocaine, then with ecstasy and heroin (as time rolls forward from the self-serving 80s into the 1990s), but with it comes severe addiction and, disturbingly, wave after wave of nerve-wracking violence. More hardened, more severe criminals turn up to do business with Carlton's associates, forcing Carlton to recruit tougher and more psychopathic elements to protect himself - particularly when the goods from a heroin shipment disappear and Turkish thugs begin closing in. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi

Wealth effects of convertible bond and convertible preference share issues: An empirical analysis of the UK market
UNSPECIFIED. (1999) Wealth effects of convertible bond and convertible preference share issues: An empirical analysis of the UK market. JOURNAL OF BANKING & FINANCE, 23 (7). pp. 1043-1065. ISSN 0378-4266
Full text not available from this repository.Abstract
We examine the wealth effects of the announcement of issues of different types of convertible securities by UK firms and find significant negative effects on shareholder wealth. We however, also find that when the sample is partitioned by method of issue, privately placed convertible bonds, in contrast to previous research, exhibit a negative impact on firm wealth. Further, we also find negative wealth effects for firms that issue convertible securities to refinance previous debt or finance specific acquisitions. However announcements of convertible bond issues, for the purpose of financing capital expenditure schemes, show significant positive wealth effects. Finally, we find mixed support for testable predictions of the main theoretical models relating cross-sectional firm characteristics of convertible bond issuers to abnormal returns.

Just the other day it was announced that director Joe Carnahan (The A-Team) is poised to take the director's chair on Death Wish, the remake of the '70s revenge tale starring the Charles Bronson. Today, Carnahan is offering more details on his vision of the remake – as well as who he sees in Bronson's iconic role.
The original Death Wish is loosely based on a novel by Brian Garfield. While the core story (a family man goes on a vigilante rampage after his wife and daughter are brutally assaulted) remains the same, the new Death Wish – like the original film – will take some liberties with how that story is conveyed. According to Carnahan, his vision for Death Wish is something reminiscent of films like Nicolas Winding Refn's stylish crime thriller Drive, and Michael Mann's Collateral.
Carnahan tweeted the following, on the matter:
Guys. I'm doing 'Death Wish.' But this version is a re-imagining of the book and set in present day Los Angeles. The L.A. of 'Collateral.' It's on buses, cabs, metro trains. I want to show an unseen version of L.A. L.A. on foot. Prowling. Hunting. The vast emptiness of downtown. … Refn did a phenomenal job shooting L.A. It took on a different dimension. That's the key. … The only role I'm writing in 'Death Wish' which will mark the ONE time I've ever written exclusively for an actor, will be for @FrankGrillo.
Frank Grillo was a standout performer in The Grey, and showed that he can definitely play a tough-but-vulnerable badass type. He must of left a similar impression on Carnahan, which would explain why the director is pulling so hard for the lesser-known actor, who's been featured in films like Warrior, as well as TV shows like The Shield and Prison Break. Grillo will next be seen playing cops and robbers in the historical crime film The Gangster Squad this fall.
Frank Grillo
The Grey had a nice debut in theaters, which means that Carnahan has a bit of clout when it comes to things like picking a leading man for his next film. However, unless the budget of Death Wish stays on the low side, it's hard to imagine a studio backing the film with an actor like Grillo in the lead – as opposed to, say, Carnahan's Grey leading man, Liam Neeson. Thankfully, Carnahan has already proven that he can take a low-budget urban tale, and turn it into something worthwhile (see: Narc).
There's no timetable on when Death Wish will be in theaters. The remake is being produced through Ridley and Tony Scott's Scott Free Production company.

should told earlier :) keep the good work! good luck!!
Firm Foundation reduces physical vulnerability and enables grass-roots development of riverfront communities in Banjarmasin with a system of urban water infrastructure. The project will engage communities towards stewardship of their neighborhoods and waterways with a participatory design process.
Communities in Banjarmasin battle with flooding, polluted waters, and rising tides, especially in dense informal settlements on the riverfront. The funding will buy materials to support a campaign and workshops to increase awareness of water issues and a construction process to create the infrastructure. We will work with waterfront communities to design and build low-cost urban water infrastructure. These improvements will reduce water-related vulnerability and create positive impacts on the river ecology, improve the public realm, and reposition the river as a local asset.
Solo Kota Kita is a non-profit organization that creates development and design projects. Our approach is highly inclusive of the communities where we work.
I hope this project can be implemented...i really want to it works
I have never heard Banjarmasin before, will be an interesting project
hope the best for solokotakita to make Banjarmasin better in facing water as part of their life and living...

as you're reaching the apex you can just engage the heel edge just like you're making a heelside stop (left, for regular rider), that should easily give you like 90-135 degree "rotation" that will be enough to position you to ride down the bank in your normal forward stance. you can style this out like a powerslide, a layback, but gravity ultimately takes over you just need to make sure you carry across the fall line (for lack of a better term) and you'll be properly oriented to ride down the bank coming out.
I guess it seems a little tricky at first because you're like, braking, but going "uphill" at that particular moment. |

The reason instructors won't teach you is probably either because they've seen your ability already and don't want to say "You're not at the required level yet, you need to work on other things first" or it's not something they often teach, so they are unfamiliar with a progression they can use to teach you.
In reality, these types of maneuvers come from experience and understanding of how a board moves on snow in relation to the movements you make. I'm not sure if I fully understand what you're after but here's a small progression you could use: Practice super fast speed checks on the flat ground, but let the heel edge engage and carry you in a new direction. Slowly progress it to side banks, by riding up on a low angle, then turning and let the board ride back down the fall line on your heel edge. As you start to get it steeper you will need to skid/slide the first 90+desgrees of the turn by turning you upper body into the turn first and then letting your legs snap back round underneath you following your upper body. The steeper the hill the more aggressive the turn needs to be, and eventually, as you've already been told, once you're going at a high angle up the hill you'll find you will need to lean backwards down the hill - you can think about dragging your rear hand if it help. Possibly the best way to learn these types of things is by watching others and trying to mimic their movements as well. Where abouts do you currently ride?

Momentum. It's like running and sliding, the faster you go, the further back you can lean without falling over. So until you want that heel edge to fully engage (once your board is pointing back down the hill) don't pull the toes up so hard and just let the board skid. |

Whether you're heading off on a European backpacking trip or simply looking for a backpacking/luggage hybrid, the Deuter Quantum 70+10 is ready to accompany you on your next trip. A product of Deuter's German engineering and extensive field-testing, the sturdy Quantum 70+10 and its nearly 5000 cubic inch capacity can stand up to the rigorous demands of modern travel and life on the trail.
Borrowing from the same innovative design found on many of their traditional backpacks, the Quantum 70+10's Vari-Quick harness system enhances fit by adjusting quickly and easily to accommodate varying torso lengths. Soft, breathable fabrics and extensive ventilated padding in the backpanel, the lumbar portion of the pack, the shoulder straps and the hipbelt further help to cushion your load. Load lifter straps, an adjustable sternum strap and side compression straps add an extra element of fit, support and stability.
With a standard capacity of 4270 cubic inches, increasing to 4870 cubic inches with the use of an extendible spindrift collar, the Quantum 70+10 provides plenty of storage space for your next travel adventure. The large main compartment of the Quantum 70+10 offers top-loading and front panel access. A zippered divider between the main compartment and a lower, front entry compartment allows for organization and separation of wet and dry gear. When packing longer items or in need of access between the two compartments, you can unzip the divider and convert the Quantum 70+10 to a single, large compartment. The Quantum 70+10's lid houses another pocket and a small zippered pocket on the hipbelt provides an additional place to stow valuables.
A large front pocket provides further storage and can be removed entirely for use as an 1100 cu in day pack. Integrated shoulder straps make this zip-off pack comfortable and efficient to carry and the same buckles used to attach the pack to the front of the Quantum 70+10 allow it to double as a large front security pocket when clipped to your shoulder straps! This helps you to keep a close eye on important documents, money or other valuables.
Other special features of the Quantum 70+10 include gear attachment rings, elastic side pockets, a daisy chain attachment system and an integrated transport cover that fully encloses the Quantum 70+10 for travel by air or rail and doubles as a rain cover for protecting your pack against the elements. A lined internal pocket makes the Quantum 70+10 hydration compatible.

Attention fans of the Florida Panthers. Or really, anyone looking to spend a few hours indoors with access to hot dogs.
Starting Thursday at noon and running for 36 hours, you can get all remaining Panthers single game tickets for half price.
We've highlighted Florida ticket promotions before on PHT. On Halloween, kids got in free if they wore a costume.
This Thanksgiving promotion seems a tad more aggressive.
The Panthers are averaging 15,314 fans per home game, good for 21st in NHL attendance.
Upcoming opponents at the BankAtlantic Center include Tampa Bay (Friday), Washington (Dec. 5), New Jersey (Dec. 13) and Calgary (Dec. 16).
Go watch this team play hockey, South Florida. They're good. They're cheap. What else do you want?
You want free hot dogs, don't you.

If that attendance number is legit, that's not too bad, all things considered. Give 'em credit, they're trying.

God I'd be a season ticket holder if I lived in Miami.
Jealous. Always tough to get tickets 'round here

I've been everywhere in that arena, and I don't think they sell hot dogs. The bagel sandwiches are great though!

I know it's too soon to even know the sex, but I know some of you have a few names picked out already. Let's share them!
Well, our baby is going to be half Brazilian and half American. It's tricky not to name it something too ethnic or too Americanized!!! I have always loved the names Rebecca and Jacqueline (they sound good in both cultures). This baby better be a girl.LOL
Oh, and I don't know about middle names. The baby may not have one. We don't do that in Brazil and I always thought it was a weird thing to do here. We carry, however, both parent's last names, so I might keep that tradition. DH is not too happy with the idea.
For a girl we are going with River Altaira. Boys we are debating between D'artagnon Victor or Balian Victor.
DS is named Ryker Alexander. DH really wants D'artagnon and I want Balian. So we've got a few debates going.... we both like both names its just we each have a preferance for one over the other.
Shenandoah, momma to Ryker. Born 3/2/2010 ASD, FTT, GERD, and DGE. That is a lot of acronyms for one SWEET boy! www.facebook.com/ShenanaginsHallow
If it is a boy it will be Liam Robert. If it is a girl we are 95% sure it will be Sophia Brielle, but we kick tossing around alternates since Sophia seems to be outrageously popular!Â
Jealine (25) wife to Airman Adam (28)
IVF2- Sophie Jan 5, 2012!! 7lbs 10.4oz 21''
Elijah William for a boy but we really haven't decided on a girl name yet. We have a hard time agreeing on anything. If it was up to him it would be Samantha or Alexandra or something like that. They're ok names but def. not my style at all.

In Detail
As a highly extensible platform, Eclipse is used by everyone from independent software developers to NASA. Key to this is Eclipse's plug-in ecosystem, which allows applications to be developed in a modular architecture and extended through its use of plug-ins and features.
"Eclipse 4 Plug-in Development by Example Beginner's Guide" takes the reader through the full journey of plug-in development, starting with an introduction to Eclipse plug-ins, continued through packaging and culminating in automated testing and deployment. The example code provides simple snippets which can be developed and extended to get you going quickly.
This book covers basics of plug-in development, creating user interfaces with both SWT and JFace, and interacting with the user and execution of long-running tasks in the background.
Example-based tasks such as creating and working with preferences and advanced tasks such as well as working with Eclipse's files and resources. A specific chapter on the differences between Eclipse 3.x and Eclipse 4.x presents a detailed view of the changes needed by applications and plug-ins upgrading to the new model. Finally, the book concludes on how to package plug-ins into update sites, and build and test them automatically.

The Finnbear uses a pushfeed system with a reliable Mauser 98-style ejector. The Finnbear features a high-gloss checkered walnut stock and its trigger-mounted safety prevents mishaps. This rifle's wood is in fair condition, its metal is in good condition, and its bore is in very good condition. |

Already, students and colleges in the region are getting the back of the hand when it comes to federal student aid. On Friday, September 16, Secretary of Education Margaret Spellings announced a $2.6 billion education relief proposal, of which just $227 million is going to post-secondary programs. Even that figure is misleading; $100 million of it is federal student aid that's already been distributed, which the government is graciously allowing students and closed colleges to keep. Most of the rest is being doled out in $1,000-per-head payments to institutions taking on new students. If you're still looking for direct aid to colleges and universities forced to close by the storm, that's right, it's not there. Nor is there any sort of funding to encourage students and faculty to return to the institutions like Tulane University that are a major economic engine for New Orleans.
Needy students nationally stand to suffer too. The Higher Education Act, which includes most federal student aid programs, is still overdue for reauthorization. With Katrina and Supreme Court nominations to deal with, the House easily passed a bill in late September to extend the current law for three months. The House version of the new bill, passed in July and discussed in this column, included a historic $11 billion in cuts, which were originally designated, over student protests, for deficit reduction. On September 13, the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions came out with a proposal student advocates like even less. Preliminary estimates show that this new version of the bill would save even more than the $11 billion, but rather than use this extra cash for two new grant programs for low-income students, which had previously been part of the Senate plan, it would redirect the money to hurricane relief, spread across hospitals, schools, and pensions.
Inside Higher Ed (insidehighered.com), an industry publication, described college representatives as "livid" and "apoplectic" about the proposal. "The Senate is asking struggling students across the country to be the rainy-day fund for the federal government," fumed the State PIRG's Higher Education Project in a press release.
Colleges and universities in the Gulf region learned about this new proposal when they met with Senate aides to discuss their apparently doomed "wish list," which included $10,000 grants to displaced students. As of a 2000 law, nonprofits, including private colleges, are not eligible for Federal Emergency Management Agency funds or low-interest loans. On September 25, The New York Times highlighted the plight of Xavier and Dillard universities, both nationally known, historically black colleges in New Orleans, both with small endowments and major damage from the storm. Xavier is requesting between $70 million and $90 million in the next year just to be able to reopen, let alone retain its faculty.
It's true that the organizations and individuals now lining up for federal Katrina relief resemble a nestful of baby birds, hungry mouths agape. But neglecting the higher education sector as badly as current federal-aid proposals do appears shortsighted for a long-term effort at rebuilding. Right now, one of the few bright spots on the horizon for New Orleans is Tulane's firm plan to reopen in January. The university is the city's single biggest private employer, and unlike the big hotels and casinos, the bulk of jobs it provides are middle-class. Louisiana's technical and community colleges are important for the region's economic recovery too. Even as the fate of their own campuses hangs in the balance, they have already begun a free job-training program, offered on-site at hurricane shelters across the state, that will provide sped-up apprenticeships and certification in carpentry, plumbing, hazardous-waste removal, and other trades expected to be in demand as rebuilding progresses.
Meanwhile, the college students who stand to take the hardest blows from Katrina areno surprisethe poorest in the area. Schools like Yale and Princeton have accepted students from Tulane and other area schools for the semester, often free of charge, with free room and board and other perks. Yet as of mid September, out of 21,000 Louisiana community college students whose education was cut short by the storm, only 635 had re-enrolled within the system. Delgado Community College in New Orleans expects no more than half its 17,000 students will return in the spring. That figure stands to be as devastating as any storm.

Intravenous immunoglobulin, blood viscosity and myocardial infarction. | |
MedLine Citation:
PMID: 9284845 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE |
Polyvalent intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) is considered to be standard therapy for a variety of autoimmune and idiopathic disorders. Several reports have emphasized the temporal association between administration of IVIg and thrombotic events. Recent experience with a patient who suffered a large myocardial infarction shortly after receiving IVIg led the authors to review the clinical and basic literature on administration of IVIg as a possible precipitant for myocardial infarction. Although the existence of an association between IVIg administration and myocardial ischemia has not been demonstrated in clinical trials, a body of clinical experience has begun to accumulate that is suggestive of an association between IVIg administration and cardiac and cerebral ischemia in older individuals or individuals with a known history of ischemic disease. Basic research demonstrating that IVIg administration may increase blood viscosity suggests that such an association is plausible. |

What kind of signal does this send the public!
Firefighters Plead Guilty to Arson
Nov 23, 2005, 04:51 PM EST Firefighters Plead Guilty to Arson
Their job was to protect you from fires -- but today, six former firefighters were in court accused of arson.
Five former Lincoln County volunter firefighters pleaded guilty today, to arson-related charges. The five were sentenced to five years pre-trial diversion. That means that if they successfully complete the five years without another offense, the charges will be expunged.
Prosectuor Daryl Day said the sentences were justified, because the burned buidlings were vacant, and no person were put in jeopardy.
My too cents.I call BS
Vacant or not they put their fellow firefighters at risk!Always a day late and a dollar short!

No Persons in jeopardy. I suppose that no body responded, and the Fires burnt out unattended? Or, does the prosecutor feel that Firefighters are not Persons?
Never use Force! Get a Bigger Hammer.

Isn't that kind of odd? The message being sent to the guilty parties is that they can keep on doing it as long as they are real careful not to get caught again. NICE.
What ever happened to hang em high?There goes the neighborhood.
Prosectuor Daryl Day said the sentences were justified, because the burned buidlings were vacant, and no person were put in jeopardy.
No one was in jeopardy. I agree with the rest do firefighters not count. How about all the cars and intersections the fire trucks went through to get there. What BS. glad that prosecutor doesnt live where I live.Training does not make perfect. Training makes permanent!

The one person involved was a convicted arsonist who caused a $250,000 lumber yard fire, I can't remeber the 2nd case he was convicted of but it was stated he was suspected in over 20 other cases, now he is a chief. When other members of the dept. were interviewed, they simply stated he served his time and they do not feel he is a threat. How in the world can they say that, did he threaten to burn their houses down or something. From what the news stated the state of PA has no law preventing these persons from becoming vollies although they do have one preventing them from becoming career. I just can't understand how this can be, it makes so little sense. People need to stand up, especialy the vollies and say we want stricter laws to prevent this. Make a stand that we don't want to stand side by side with convicted arsonists. Now to my next rant. What in the world motivates a firefighter to become an arsonist, yeah I know looking for action, looking to be the guy who saved the day. But realy how do they actualy take that step, it seems insane to me. Yeah the justification is bad enough, we don't need glory hounds or nut jobs, but to actualy go thru with these ideas. If any thing firefighter arsonists should get stricter punishment, set the example.

Not surprised ... the court system still seems to percieve arson in many places as a simple property crime and not a volient crime. In VT about 10 years ago, w0e had a guy start a fire in a 24 unit apartment building and burn down half of it ... he recieved no jail time and only 5 years of probabtion. We had to makes 5-6 saves and almost lost 2 guys in a partial collapse ... too bad the legal syetem doesn't understand the risks that we (choose to) take once we arrive.
Seems like this attitude is pretty widespread based on the articles i read now and then.

Sad Case!
PHOENIX (AP) -- The former commander of an elite wildfire team that
battled the largest blaze in Arizona history and aided in recovery
efforts at the World Trade Center is accused of starting two fires
last year, federal prosecutors said.
Van Bateman, 55, was indicted Wednesday for allegedly setting the
fires in the Coconino National Forest in 2004. He faces two federal
counts of setting timber afire and two counts of arson on public
lands. The first charge carries a maximum prison sentence of five
years, while arson is punishable by up to 20 years, prosecutors said
Bateman was a Type I incident commander, the head of a wildfire
management crew that is called in for the biggest and most severe
wildfires. His four-year term in that position expired in 2004 and he
became leader of a slightly lower level team until he was indicted
and put on paid leave, according to Forest Service officials.
Bateman is accused of setting a tenth-of-an-acre (0.04 hectare) fire
on May 8, 2004, and a 21-acre 8.4-hectare) fire on June 23, 2004.
A message left at his home was not immediately returned Thursday.
Patrick Schneider, a spokesman for the U.S. attorney's office,
declined to comment on the possible motive or other aspects of the
Bateman, a 34-year veteran, commanded a Forest Service team sent to
the World Trade Center site after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist
He has fought wildfires across the West, including leading one of
four elite teams that managed crews that battled the largest wildfire
Arizona has seen. That blaze covered 469,000 acres in 2002, destroyed
491 homes and forced the evacuation of 30,000 people in eastern
Bateman is not the first firefighter to be accused of starting a
wildfire in Arizona. In 2002, part-time firefighter Leonard Gregg was
accused of starting part of a blaze that destroyed hundreds of homes
in northeast Arizona. Gregg pleaded guilty in 2004 to two counts of
intentionally setting a fire and was sentenced to 10 years in prison.Always a day late and a dollar short!

Coldfront, If you were thinking I was trying to make this the regular career/vollie thread, I wasn't. My thought is all firefighters should be held to the same entrance procedures. That goes from a full medical- not the same ol' family doc signing a piece of paper, straight thru to a oral interview- not like some of the ones I've heard people say- "you like beer, you like women? ok your in". Not makin that up I know some guys who've been on the q and the a side of those interviews. I think it is important on both sides of the coin, lets face it there are many more vollies than career, more chances for a nutjob to be in the ranks. If we use stricter entrance protocols we may be able to weed some out. I know it is not 100% effective, but a nice start and a little better to defend the company when it goes to the papers and court if it should arise. I think it is a pretty common thought among rational people that we all do the same job, so why not have the same qualifications and prerequisites. I think beings the vollies have the bigger percentage of firefighters they should lead the charge and fight for stricter laws and entrance procedures. Lets not leave the door open for people to ask how it is that a convicted arsonist can be a firefighter. Would you want a convicted felon as a cop, of course not. Stricter rules need to be in place. Of course this is not every where, however it is the case in PA (per the report- with no denial by any firefighters and a confirmation by a state senator). Lets prevent a possible mess and nip it before it can start. These stories make eveyone look bad, not just the vollies. Most people have no clue who protects them, they just know they dial 911 and firefighters show up. A proactive stance is the best solution, not a defensive one after something like this happens. If it came off as a hit towards vollies it's not. But they hold the card of having more members, which means more chances for problems.

2) No psych or integrity testing(this is a great tool).
3) When caught, the punishment DOESN'T fit the crime.
Let's see; firefighters do their job. Cops do their job.
Who drops the ball on a regular basis? The COURTS!
And I'll tell you right now; if the charge of arson is elevated because a firefighter got hurt while fighting it; guess what? I will guarantee you someone is going to "claim" they got hurt fighting a fire. Some years ago, a teenager set a fire, we knew she set the fire(was ****ed at Mom), she admitted she set the fire and the cop was going to let her go. I grabbed the cop, said one of my guys got hurt and I would file the charge. She was taken in, counselled and today, she is a very different young lady. But if she'd been let go that first time, I KNOW something bad would have happened. Her parents to this day thank me for getting their daughter help.
Anyway; judgey-wudgey screwed up.
For this and more like it, go to a thread started by ED back on 8/23/02. That's right; we been talkin' about this for THREE YEARS and counting.

If the prosecution has a lackadaisical attitude about arson, it will be reflected in the plea bargain extended in an arson case.
In my county, there were many times that I shook my head and wondered why I even bothered when I read the plea bargain. I developed the attitude that it was my job to get the guilty adjudication. Every thing after that was out of my control.
But I was most fortunate in working for an agency that had a 100% zero tolerance for fire fighter arson. No pretrial diversion. None. No pleas to a lesser offense. None. It may get downgraded from a second to a third degree, but your record will show an Arson conviction. In NJ, you cannot get an Arson conviction expunged.
If you have a prosecution team with no gonads, you will have pleas like this.

I wonder what would have happened if a Firefighter was injured or killed while fighting these "vacant" building fires?
Would the attitude and charges have changed?
Would "persons" have been put at risk?

Fire fighters are charged with protecting life and property. They are fully aware of the potential concequences relating to insurance companies, property owners, residence, and first responders. Fire fighters should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law and treated harshly for committing arson.

Forgive me if I am wrong but don't most states make it mandatory for persons with a criminal record to report that to prospective employers.
Imagine never getting a good job again for the rest of your life.
That is a guarantee that people will choose to continue acting outside the law, and harming society.
Ya they created a situation where FF's might be at risk.
Don't know about you but vacant buildings on fire aren't much more than practice or a nuisance call.
I do do a criminal record check for all new recruits. Don't forget that there are WAY more Volly's the full time FF's. There will be more incedents of every kind with the Volly's.
Berwyn, Are you suggesting that a vacant building fire does not pose a threat to firefighters. Are there vagrants inside? Is it a 3 story mill, possible exposures? I am not sure of what you mean, however if you are suggesting that a vacant building is not or should not be a danger to firefighters, you are wrong. Although there are some things that we may be able to do different, it does not matter we still have a job to be done, a job that comes with many inherent dangers. Yes we may be able to eliminate some of them with a vacant building, however there are some that we can not. Could you live with having a fire that may be very controlable upon arrival, but make the decision to go totaly defensive and a vagrant inside (possibly more than 1, possibly children) dies. Now that I write that it makes me wonder maybe it is just neighbor hood kids that started a small fire and are now not able to make it out, could you live with the decision to write them off when you have a possible controlable fire but instead decide it is a vacant building lets just go defensive. If I am taking what you stated wrong please tell me and this is just another of my pointless rants, however if you did mean it as taken give me some justification of your view.

I locked up a FF who had set three fires. Caught him after there was an accelerated fire on the exterior of a house that had been "vacant" (for sale) for some time, but had been recently sold and re-occuppied.
He kind of gave himself away when we had the company come back to the house and we were interviewing the victims. His knees buckled when he walked up. Took about three minutes to get a confession.
It was particularly offensive in that he used gasoline and flares from the fire house. All three fires were within walking distance to the fire house. Had a K9 track from the scene to the fire house, however, the dog couldn't pronounce the actor's name.

Recipe by Gimme Some Oven
Delicious fudge brownies are filled with salty pretzels and a layer of caramel on top!

They're sweet. They're salty. They're CHOCOLATE-Y. What more can I say?!? These brownies have everything you could want and more. From the double layer of salty crunchy pretzels, to the sweet layer of salted caramel on top, to the ooey gooey fudge brownies -- you can't help but love this dessert that pretty much has it all. And it only takes minutes to prep! I think you had better give it a try… Start with a box of Betty Crocker Fudge Brownies. Prepare the brownie batter according to package instructions. Pour about 1/3 of the batter into the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking pan that has been lined with parchment paper or greased with cooking spray. Spread the batter so that it forms an even layer to coat the bottom of the pan. Then comes the fun pretzel part! Lay the pretzels down in an even layer on top of the brownie batter, then add a second even layer. Spoon the rest of the brownie batter on top of the pretzel layer. I found it worked best to spoon the batter on in small clumps. Then bake the brownies in the oven at 350 for about 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Once the brownies are out, spoon some caramel sauce onto the top of the brownies. And smooth it out to form an even layer. Sprinkle with some coarse sea salt. And then once the brownies have cooled, lift them out of the pan if you used parchment paper for easy cutting. (Or you can cut them in the pan.) Cut them into individual bars, and watch that ooey gooey caramel mix with those salty pretzels and chocolate.
Sweet and salty HEAVEN!

Radioprotective effect of inosine and its enhancement by magnesium and global hypoxia. | |
MedLine Citation:
PMID: 1811724 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE |
The slight radioprotective action of inosine, when injected intraperitoneally to mice shortly before gamma-irradiation, can be enhanced by the administration of magnesium aspartate. This effect can be explained by the additivity of the vasodilatory actions of both agents. Inosine increases the radioprotective effectiveness of hypobaric hypoxia (10% O2), probably due to the additivity of the hypoxic effects in radiosensitive tissues. Acute hypoxic toxicity, however, is decreased by inosine administration. The cumulation of radioprotective effects of inosine and of its antihypoxic action in vitally important organs can have a favourable influence in hypoxic radiotherapy. |

If you have a big rig and want full hookup, camp elsewhere. We have a 35' rig and had to drive with extreme caution to make our way through the narrow, winding, steep maze full of trees and dumpsters to get to our campsite. It had electric, water, and sewer, but it was located in a field in the back corner of the campground, all by itself, with a "lovely view" of a storage/boneyard of old campers. The antenna picked up zero TV channels and the Wi-Fi is only available in the camp store (a 15 min walk from full hookups, unless you want to rent a golf cart for $58/day), but even there our phones couldn't locate a Wi-Fi signal. The only redeeming quality of this park is that they offer free water park passes to Chula Vista, which is a 5 min drive down the road. When I went back to the office to ask how we'd ever get our camper out of the "one way" maze, she suddenly remembered that there was another gated entry closer to the full hook-up area, and I had to leave a credit card to secure a magnetic key pass for the weekend. If we weren't exhausted from the drive that day, we wouldn't have stayed there. We camped at Holiday Shore Campground and Resort in a Fifth Wheel.

The formal name of this RV park, "Holiday Shores Campground and Resort" would be more accurate if they dropped the "and Resort" part of the name. Those of you who have visited many RV parks will know what that means: this is a campground. The pros: the pull-thru, big rig sites were asphalt paved (but narrow), the water pressure and quality was very good, the swimming pool was nice and well maintained, and office staff, for the most part, were very friendly. The cons: there was very low voltage when the pull-thru, big rig sites section of the park filled up (the last three days of our visit. Our power management system kept shutting us down because the voltage regularly dropped below 104V. We couldn't even run one air conditioner). There are way too many golf carts and people speeding around, a significant number of rural, uneducated, and narrow-minded folks seem to be drawn to this park, there were many trees near roadways making it very challenging for big rigs, and grounds maintenance (mowing) is sub-par. There effectively is no WiFi (they advertise WiFi availability in the office but it doesn't work), and there is no recycling on site (for a park this large, that generates huge amounts of trash, this is unacceptable). There are no recycling centers in Wisconsin Dells, either. We camped at Holiday Shore Campground and Resort in a Fifth Wheel.

This is a huge campground with mostly full-timers and regulars/seasonals. Upon booking, the host took our credit card, but could not send an email confirmation. For a campground this big, I was shocked that they had no interent or email for staff use. The firepit was much too close to the electrical hook-up (we ended up moving the pit). Not a particularly friendly campground. We were asked by the people across from us what time we were leaving the next day because they had a friend who wanted to come in and set up their tent early (8am). The kids enjoyed the pool and the lake activities and made friends with the locals. Overall, very loud and active. We camped at Holiday Shore Campground and Resort in a Motorhome.
Date of Stay: August, 2013 - $30.00
We camped here for one week. When we called to book we asked for two sites, one for our 29 foot travel trailer and one for a tent. We were offered two overflow sites which turned out to be great as they were close to the office, bathrooms, and the water, and we had tons of privacy! The rest of the campsite was very busy, and the campground is hilly. The cafe at the office offers wi-fi and fresh donuts every morning. It's close to everything, and the free passes to Los Rios were a bonus. We camped at Holiday Shore Campground and Resort in a Travel Trailer.

This is a decent park that caters to boaters. We had a pull through which is in a new section at the back of the campground. We had to weave (literally) through the very tight campground to get to our site. Doable for me, but maybe not for some. It would be better if they gave you the number for the seasonal gate for large rig entry. (We are 55 feet from front bumper to trailer bumper!) Hookups were nice and pull throughs were level and long. Beware that the full hookup sites have no shade at all. We were here over the 4th and there was a heat wave. The whole time it was 100 degrees almost every day! Our A/C struggled during the day to get the trailer down to 85 degrees. They have a small arcade with a couple of games. Small pool for the size campground. They need to add another pool for the size of this place. They do give anyone staying 3 days or more free passes to Chula Vista Hotel and indoor/outdoor water park just down the road. I would stay again and probably also rent a boat for the day. We camped at Holiday Shore Campground and Resort in a Travel Trailer.
Date of Stay: July, 2012 - $50.00
Went to Holiday Shores campground for 3 days (July 20, 21, &22), and the weather was beautiful. We wanted a full hook-up site, but had to settle for a water and electric site instead. The campground provides a daily honey wagon which comes around to empty your grey and black tanks for free (tips accepted). As a result, we had to use their shower facility. The good news is their shower facility was clean. The site that we had was large enough to put a 32 footer trailer and 3 large tents. The people and the atmosphere was pleasant and friendly. They also provide activities for the kids. We will definitely return to Holiday shores campground. We camped at Holiday Shore Campground and Resort in a Travel Trailer.

Pros: well managed campground, friendly and helpful people, good facilities, once a day garbage collection; black-top site with park bench on site; good size sites; game room and playground near the back of park too; lots of kids for our son to play with; great onsite store. Cons: too far from downtown dells, a lot of driving and gas in our pick up truck--hence the lower score; the map is a somewhat confusing, took us almost half an hour to find our site--should be escorted to site in such a big place.

This is my new favorite campground. The staff was great. It is very clean. There is a ton of stuff to do. The value is great, you get access to a water park everyday of your stay. We stayed in a pull-through site on the back side with full hookups and we had friends that stayed in down by the pool with no sewer but had a "honey wagon" come by for $6.00 a day. I would stay in either site. The beach was a lot of fun. We rented a Pontoon and had a blast. It does get tight if you do not have access to the rear entrance, but not impossible to get through at all. There are not more extra charges here than other places. If anyone has a problem at this campground, its them not the staff IMO. The store has a bit of everything including very good ice cream and homemade donuts for a very reasonable price. I will be back again, this summer hopefully. Also the campground was full and still all the bathrooms and other facilities where very clean.

We spent an excellent week here. This campground has everything: a great beach with floatable play things, several playgrounds, a great pool area, game room, boat rentals. You name it, it's here. We will definitely go back again soon. We camped at Holiday Shore Campground and Resort in a Tent Trailer.

This is a very nice park with many activities for kids and adults alike. We stayed in one of the pull through sites which are located essentially on top of a hill. No view of the river, but it was a very nice site nevertheless. If you have a long rig (our TT is 33') inquire about their rear entrance as this will save you some stress. Staff was very friendly. Sites were very clean and very roomy. We will absolutely stay here again. Campground is just minutes from all of the other Dell's activities if those are of interest to you.

Big campground, kid friendly, semi close to town, lots of activities. We stayed in a newer part of the campground (site 114) and there was very little shade, very small trees. Sites were good size and pull thru. We had many family members there from all over U.S. and needed camp sites, cabins, and hotel rooms. This was one of the very few in the Dells that offered all this. Great playground and swimming pool. Good game room. Interesting walk up outdoor theater. Fishing pond needs some attention as it was more of a breading ground for mosquitoes than a fishing pond, needs attention. Trash cans at each site. This campground gave me the feeling of a retirement village with many campers being year round with porches, etc. If you are looking for a quiet campground, this is not the place for you. Lots of golf carts running around. I think if you want a waterfront river site, it may be next to impossible. I would have rated the campground higher, but I prefer my campgrounds a little less crowded. At full capacity, we were told they can jam in 5000 campers. Find that a little hard to believe, but it is a big campground, a little to big for me. They sell show tickets at the front desk for a slight discount, but bring cash as they do not accept credit cards for show tickets. Hmmm...what is up with that?

We camped here while vacationing in the Dells. We stayed Saturday through Tuesday and it really cleared out after Monday. Over the weekend, the park is full. The pool area is very nice. We had a site that backed up to the river and it was very nice. The fire pit is separate from the campsite, it is closer to the Wisconsin River, behind your campsite. I liked this layout very much. We stayed on site #4 and found it to be a site that we would request again. This campground also has boat rentals and a marina on site. The bathrooms were nice. I noticed them being cleaned often. We will definitely camp here again. We camped at Holiday Shore Campground and Resort in a Travel Trailer.

We like this campground and have stayed here several times. Level wooded sites with paved roads. The sites along the river have a good view. Able to rent boats right at the campground. The showers and restrooms are kept clean. The staff has always been friendly and helpful. We camped at Holiday Shore Campground and Resort in a Travel Trailer.
